I have read through as much of this forum as I can take. I think page 34. My god there is a lot to talk about.
So I use my Aura every day and several times a day. For years I haven't gone to sleep without using it to read.
Now, I am kind of a dummy and I copied a different file into the KoboRoot.tar.gz position. in an effort to use it as a distraction free writing device as sell as per "kobowriter".
So I was a dummy. But, before I did that i thought 'well to avoid complications, I will copy everything from my KOBO to my computer before trying, including the original KoboRoot.tar.gz.'
It did not work. I tried removing the internal SD card (opening up the back and sliding the card out from the board) and copying the saved files onto it and it does not work. I am kinda at my wits end with it.
What has to go onto the SD card to make it reboot normally?
And if you know, how can I get Kobowriter to work?

Thanks for any help you can give me.
I need things to read all the time and am getting very sad at the though of my Aura not working.
